You should note that "cargo clean" causes dependencies to be rebuilt next build as well; a regular "cargo build" would only re-compile your module and re-link with already-built dependencies, and so should be a fair bit faster.

Good point. I did that on purpose in order to do a full rebuild -- but I suppose for the purposes of "is rustc fast", it's actually more interesting to just do a build without clean (although one would have to manually remove the built binary and/or change the code in order to force a rebuild?).
